THEY Chapter 7


Everything is too complicated
Chapter 7
And they will say,
2Well,
3A lot of things,
4Because they pretty much know that things are the way they are,
5And that’s the way they’ll always be,
6Which is why if you have to talk about it at all,
7They’d like it better if you were some little balding ethnic guy with glasses,
8Who has a great sense of humor about how he doesn’t know really anything,
9Which is the only real human kwisdom,
10Which is the only real human lwisdom,
11Which is the only real human mwisdom that humans have produced in five thousand years of history.
12(Except, of course, they don’t mean that quite the way it sounds,
13Especially if it sounds like anything anywhere in the Word on the Past,
14Or the Word on the Present,
15Which comes from punks,
16With an ax to grind.)
